Pea Shooter

Quickstart

1. Find a Pea Shooter naturally on a well-lit grass block, or use the Pea Shooter Spawn Egg in Creative mode.
2. Hold a potato, carrot, or beetroot to make it follow you.
3. Lead it to a safe area. You can also attach a lead to keep it nearby.
4. Try feeding a baby Pea Shooter one of those three foods to help it grow.
5. Defeat an adult Pea Shooter for beetroot seeds.

You can also summon one with:

/summon com_pea_shooter_w4zlx52p:pea_shooter

Overview

The Pea Shooter is a peaceful, wandering plant-like creature. It behaves like a passive animal, roaming around grass and following players who hold suitable vegetables.

It does not attack players. Pea Shooters have 10 health points, equal to 5 hearts.

What It Adds

• The passive Pea Shooter creature
• A Pea Shooter Spawn Egg for Creative mode
• Natural spawning in suitable grassy biomes
• Beetroot seed drops from adult Pea Shooters
• Food-based following and baby growth
• Lead and name tag support

How To Use

Finding Pea Shooters

Pea Shooters can naturally spawn:

• On the surface
• On grass blocks
• At light levels from 7 through 15
• In biomes with animal spawning or in cherry groves
• In groups of 1–3

Look across grassy, well-lit areas to find them.

Spawning One

In Creative mode, search the inventory for Pea Shooter Spawn Egg and use it on the ground.

With commands enabled, use:

/summon com_pea_shooter_w4zlx52p:pea_shooter

Luring Pea Shooters

Hold any of these items in your hand:

• Potato
• Carrot
• Beetroot

A nearby Pea Shooter will be tempted to follow you. Use this to move it into an enclosure or guide it away from danger.

Keeping One Nearby

Pea Shooters can be attached to leads. Use a lead to tie one to a fence or guide it while exploring.

They can also be named with a name tag.

Crafting And Obtaining

There is no crafting recipe for the Pea Shooter or its spawn egg.

You can obtain Pea Shooters by:

• Finding them in natural grassy spawns
• Using the Pea Shooter Spawn Egg in Creative mode
• Summoning one with its entity command

Adult Pea Shooters drop 1–2 beetroot seeds when killed. A Looting-enchanted weapon can provide up to 1 additional seed.

Abilities And Mechanics

Passive Behavior

Pea Shooters wander peacefully and do not have an attack. They can panic and run when threatened, and they avoid water while walking.

Following Food

Potatoes, carrots, and beetroots attract Pea Shooters. Holding one of these foods is the easiest way to move an adult or baby.

This behavior does not tame the creature.

Babies

Baby Pea Shooters are smaller and follow their parent when one is present. Feeding a baby a potato, carrot, or beetroot helps it grow toward adulthood.

Drops And Experience

Adult Pea Shooters drop beetroot seeds when killed:

• Base drop: 1–2 beetroot seeds
• Looting bonus: 0–1 additional seed

An adult Pea Shooter can also drop 1–3 experience points when the final hit is made by a player.

Progression And Strategy

• Search cherry groves and other animal-spawning biomes first.
• Bring potatoes, carrots, or beetroots when exploring so you can lure Pea Shooters home.
• Use leads to prevent a Pea Shooter from wandering away.
• Keep Pea Shooters on fenced grass and away from water.
• Grow baby Pea Shooters with vegetables before relying on them for beetroot seeds.
• Use Looting when harvesting seeds from adult Pea Shooters.
